Me too! You're being facetious right? https://community.fantasyflightgames.com/topic/247037-what-do-you-want-to-see-in-the-future/?do=findComment&comment=2729717

and/or cavalry units no?

Storms Sorceress vs. Uncontrolled Geomancer
maxam replied to WWHSD's topic in Runewars Miniatures Game
Oh I agree wholeheartedly, but that is also why I mentioned it would be important to have her backed up by Maegan... what I should have said is Maegan with Malcorne's Bequest which gives her a free re-cast of the correct rune type (unstable) and if that doesn't work she gets another re-cast for the cost of exhausting the Bequest. You're still stacking a lot of things up to get her to proc, but I still think she has the edge on the Geomancer. The Daqan can take the other mage that lets them flip runes to help with his ability, but he's still going to have to be within (a variable by turn) range of a unit that is of the right size/type for the ability to have an effect. -
Storms Sorceress vs. Uncontrolled Geomancer
maxam replied to WWHSD's topic in Runewars Miniatures Game
I think that may be it - there's a 3 in 8 chance of seeing any combo of surge/surges on a blue die. Only 1 in 8 to see a double surge, 2 in 8 to see a single. So slightly less than half the time she will proc. Still, when she does it will be pretty brutal, and if she's backed up by Maegan's rune flipping shenanigans doubly so... But overall - I'd definitely still prefer her over Uncontrolled Geomancer, she's still going to be useful more often IMHO -
Just finished watching it - great battle ... what a slaughter! Thanks for editing out the Command Phase too! Just one thing ... When a Blight is spent, the attacker gets to choose the die that's removed (not the defender who is spending the Blight) 12.1 Keep 'em coming ... I've subscribed!
-
I truly hope that Daqan and Waiqar have new units/heroes released at the same time as the Latari that will bring them up to par.

@flightmaster101 Ah sorry ... I see now. (^_^)
-
From the article (emphasis mine): She's going to be both (yay!) Although I imagine she won't be as impressive when she's not on her wooly mamoose...
-
So, Maegan aside... Anyone notice the Champion in the Command expansion is equipped for Melee and Ranged? (Sickle and Bow)
-
Seventh faction Deep (Dark) Elves confirmed!
-
Well the man who gave us tall humanoid Elves (as opposed to the traditional little people style Elves) set the precedent as he had Half Elves (c.f. Elrond) OTOH, Elves are far more attractive to humans I would imagine!

It might be a Ventala? From p. 28 of the Lore Guide:

Can figure upgrades outlast the rest of the unit?
maxam replied to Ailowynn's topic in Runewars Rules Questions
That's where the four arms come in handy! -
Sorry, everything after that sentence was just background noise - I was too busy running around the room whooping for joy that you've finally caved in! ... but seriously though, I'm with Klonoa and Xargonaut here and would suggest going for a redder orange or a silver trim.

It'll never happen, but my vote goes to Ispher...
-
I just want to know what new upgrade or mechanic is going to be supplying all of these surges! "I guess the first two surges for my Leonx riders I'll spend as unique surges for single Mortal Strike, I'll dump the rest into adding hits"
-
If I was a betting man, I'd put money on it being "I'm-heh-lihn" based on the way they pronounce Daqan and Uthuk. I don't know the correct lingual term, but they seem to prefer the "deeper/longer" sound in pronouncing their words...
-
Ditto ... and that's great because you're going to have one Blue every. single. turn. (and sometimes a bonus second).

I'm worried the game doesn't have enough factions at launch...
maxam replied to Wispur's topic in Runewars Miniatures Game
Oh, no I can relate... It is my fervent hope that FFG temper this with "cool new hotness" releases for existing factions at the same time as the new factions drop/expand. Fingers crossed (very tightly)... -
I really appreciate this Budgernaut! I've been pronouncing Daqan and Waiqar purely as Christian Petersen did at the in-flight report, which matches this video perfectly (well duh!). Latari I thought was pretty straightforward, but I was busting to know the correct way to pronounce Uthuk. Thank you very much! Next on the list: Ynfernael
-
True I lumped them all into "wave 1" because they were all lumped into the same release date. Also there's some X-Wing influencing me ... wave 1 of X-Wing included core set ships (with new cards) as well as some new ships...
-
That is equal parts amazing and terrifying ... I like it!

Sooo... looking at the Carrion Lancer and Rune Golem expansions, there are at least 3 siege upgrade cards in each box... If we assume that two in each box are the same as the ones that come in the Core (Frontline Rune Golem, Support Lancer ... one for each mini), then there's at least one new Siege upgrade in each box. That being the case, I wonder what they may represent? Would these be upgrades giving the alternative ability of the units? For example, rather than spitting Blight, the alternate Support Lancer may trade that for the ability to apply conditional Mortal Strikes, per the solo unit, and the alternate Front Line Rune Golem might be handing out Stun tokens instead of adding Brutal to the unit. N.B. I know the article states 8 new upgrade cards, but I've got a sneaking suspicion that that's misleading and we will be seeing the same siege upgrade cards from the core, plus the extra(s)

Help needed with relatively simple Graphic Work for RuneWars
maxam replied to Holmelund's topic in Runewars Miniatures Game
Ah, I see! NASA space pictures are really great because they're very hi-res and super cool ... ready to go with little manipulation. In this case you are very much correct - the actual process is not very involved at all as the hard part is already done! Which is great if you play X-Wing or Armada... For a really cool image for a matt suited to Runewars, my previous post stands unfortunately... Thanks for taking my post the intended way ... it certainly wasn't meant to be mean or snarky, but I can see how it could be taken that way...
